🚨 Update, January 21, 2025 – Maintenance Completed 🚨

The planned maintenance on the Developer Community has been successfully completed! While the site is up and running, we are still performing additional testing, so occasional issues may occur.

We apologize for any inconvenience and greatly appreciate your patience. If you notice anything unusual, please don’t hesitate to let us know.

Thank you for your understanding and support!

Hi Community,

If you thought native Go support for IRIS was exciting, wait until you see what happens when GORM enters the mix.

Just recently, we welcomed native GoLang support for InterSystems IRIS with the release of go-irisnative. That was just the beginning. Now, we’re kicking things up a notch with the launch of gorm-iris — a GORM driver designed to bring the power of Object Relational Mapping (ORM) to your IRIS + Go stack.

Why GORM?

GORM is one of the most popular ORM libraries in the Go ecosystem. It makes it easy to interact with databases using Go structs instead of writing raw SQL. With features like auto migrations, associations, and query building, GORM simplifies backend development significantly.

So naturally, the next step after enabling Go to talk natively with IRIS was to make GORM work seamlessly with it. That’s exactly what gorm-iris does.

InterSystems has corrected a defect that causes invalid database and journal records to be introduced when using a specific $LIST syntax. The likelihood of encountering this defect is very low but the operational impacts can be significant.

I have a database that is 2TB in size (from a LIVE system).

I would like to defragment it but I have some questions. I took a look at official documentation but it does not help.

Hello InterSystems community!

We have an amazing opportunity for 3 experienced Caché developers to join our team in building an innovative platform in the MedTech sector.

What we offer:

RabbitMQ is a message broker that allows producers (those who send a data message) and consumers (those who receive a data message) to establish asynchronous, real-time, and high-performance massive data flows. RabbitMQ supports AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol), an open standard application layer protocol.
The main reasons to employ RabbitMQ include the following:

• You can improve the performance of the applications using an asynchronous approach.
• It lets you decouple and reduce dependencies between services, microservices, and applications with the help of a data message mediator, meaning that there is no need for producers and consumers of exchanged data to know each other.
• It allows the long-running processing of sent data (with the results) to be delivered after utilizing a response queue.
• It helps you migrate from monolithic to microservices, where microservices exchange data via Rabbit in a decoupled and asynchronous way.
• It offers reliability and resilience by making it possible for messages to be stored and forwarded. A message can be delivered multiple times until it is processed.
• Message queueing is the key to scaling your application. As the workload increases, you will only have to add more workers to handle the queues faster.
• It works well with data streaming applications.
• It is beneficial for IoT applications.
• It is a must for Bots’ communication.

We can loop over segment group or repeatable segments with FOREACH in business rules. How can we loop over repeated fields within a segment in business rule?

Thank you

At the moment we're creating multiple BPLs are using a router (or another BPL) to direct to these based on a unique key modulo the amount of BPLs available, e.g. if we have 3 BPLs created.

Message key = 1 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL02
Message key = 2 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL03
Message key = 3 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL01

FIFO only matters in that each messages for each key is processed in order.

Been testing out the Production Validator toolkit, just to see what we can/not do with it. Seems really interesting and there seem to be some use cases for it that can really streamline some upgrades (or at least parts of upgrades) but I was running into so many hurdles with the documentation. I am curious if anyone else has used it.

In this article I'll show you how to set up in your laptop, very quickly, a cluster of IRIS nodes in sharding. It's not the goal of this article neither to talk about sharding in detail nor define a deployment of a production ready architecture, but to show how to set up quickly, in your own machine, a cluster of IRIS instances configured as shard nodes, with which you'll able to play and test this functionality. If you're insterested in knowing more about sharding in IRIS, take a look at the documentation clicking here.

First and foremost, I want to remark that IRIS sharding will allow us 2 things:

• Define, load and query shard tables, which data will be distributed transparently between the cluster's nodes
• Define federated tables, which offer a global and composed view of data belonging to different tables that will be physically stored in different distributed nodes

So, as I said, we let for other article playing with shard or federated tables, and just focus now in the previous step, that is, setting up the cluster of shard nodes.

Hello everyone! This is my first post into the developer community and one that I hope is fairly simple to answer. In our environment we currently have 3 different Test environments for testing before migrating code to our Prod environment. Currently we are working on establishing a source control method using Git in house which has been a bit of a struggle. We have also had developers that had used different test and migration methods in the past which has caused some issues with keeping the different test environment in sync.

I need to download IRIS STUDIO 2024.1.3
